Simplified vibratory characterization of alluvial basins     

Jean-François Semblat  Roberto Paolucci  Anne-Marie Duval 《Comptes Rendus Geoscience》2003,335(4):365-370

For the analysis of seismic wave amplification, modal methods are interesting tools to study the modal properties of geological structures. Modal approaches mainly lead to information on such parameters as fundamental frequencies and eigenmodes of alluvial basins. For a specific alluvial deposit in Nice (France), a simplified modal approach involving the Rayleigh method is considered. This approach assumes a set of admissible shape functions for the eigenmodes and allows a fast estimation of the fundamental frequency of the basin. The agreement with other numerical results (Boundary Element Method) and experimental ones is fully satisfactory. The simplified modal method then appears as an efficient mean for the global vibratory characterization of geological structures towards resonance. To cite this article: J.-F. Semblat et al., C. R.

Local site effects in Latur, India: an empirical study based on the aftershocks of the Killari earthquake of September 29, 1993     

V. Midzi  D. D. Singh  K. Atakan  J. Havskov 《Engineering Geology》2003,68(3-4):251-258

The site amplification is estimated at five seismic stations of the Latur region using the horizontal to vertical spectral ratios of 33 aftershocks of the main Killari earthquake of September 29, 1993 (UTC). Spectral amplifications, ranging from a factor of 2–6 are found to vary with frequency at different places. Significant amplification is found at four sites within the Latur region, at Basavakalyan, Kasgi, Killari, and Mudgad Eakoji villages. Our results show a positive correlation between the site amplification and the damage pattern in area. The pattern and the nature of the site amplification estimated in the present study corroborates also with the analytical models and the borehole data indicating alternating layers of unconsolidated sediments and basaltic rocks.  相似文献

Empirical correlations of soil parameters based on Cone Penetration Tests (CPT) for Greek soils     

A. Anagnostopoulos  G. Koukis  N. Sabatakakis  G. Tsiambaos 《Geotechnical and Geological Engineering》2003,21(4):377-387

This study presents the results of Cone Penetration Tests (CPT) and estimated correlations with the results of other in-situ tests (standard penetration test, cross-hole, seismocone) and laboratory tests (classification and undrained shear strength tests). These tests cover nearly all types of penetrable soils in Greece and, together with the formulation of empirical correlations, complement and improve on previous studies due to the significant number of CPT measurements.  相似文献

李山有  王学良  金星  杨柏坡  孙平善 《地震工程与工程振动》2003,23(4):17-21

团树断层场地在多次地震中出现了烈度异常。为了弄清烈度异常的原因，应用显式有限元方法，数值模拟了在脉冲地震波斜入射情形下断层场地的地震反应。结果表明：在基岩山脚附近土层场地地震动放大比基岩山区平均高4倍、比远离基岩山脚土层场地平均高2倍，与历史震害分布有较好的对应。  相似文献

Looting, collecting, and the destruction of archaeological resources     

Ricardo J. Elia 《Natural Resources Research》1997,6(2):85-98

Archaeological sites, the material remnants of our human past, are finite and nonrenewable cultural resources that are under constant threat from environmental forces, development activities, warfare, vandalism, and looting. Site looting is the destructive removal of archaeological objects to supply the art market. Looting is part of an economic system, the antiquities market, that works to supply the demand of collectors for archaeological objects. The destruction of archaeological resources by looters is an international crisis and threatens to obliterate the world’s cultural heritage and our ability to understand past cultures. The scale and intensity of the looting problem can be estimated by studying the extent of site destruction in countries of origin and by investigating the sources of antiquities held by collectors. Finding a solution to the problem of looting will require a focus on the demand side of the market (i.e., collectors) instead of the traditional focus on the supply side (looters, dealers)  相似文献

Seismic hazard assessment in the Ionian Islands based on observed macroseismic intensities     

Joanna E. Papoulia  Dario Slejko 《Natural Hazards》1996,14(2-3):179-187

Catalogues of actual observed intensities are constructed for three towns in the Ionian Islands. They are used for seismic hazard assessment and the results are compared with those obtained by standard approaches; that is, by statistics applied to the data computed from epicentral parameters. The results show that seismic hazard is better assessed using observed rather than computed data, but preparation of the local catalogue presents non-trivial difficulties.  相似文献
